Saturn V Model rocket BT 80 by scottdee
by Thingiverse
Last crawled date: 3 years, 5 months ago
This is a kit of parts that can be printed up to make a BT 80 Based model rocket version of the mighty saturn V . All the neatness of the awesome 1/100 scale Estes Saturn V with a lower cost to fly, and a less expensive and time consuming build. This is not a complete kit, You will still need to use standard model rocket parts to complete a flying version of this rocket. You will need lengths of BT80 BT60 BT50 And BT20. You will also need a 24" parachute, Shock Cord, Kevlar Cord, thrust ring, Centering Ring, and Engine hook. Various other building supplies such as cardstock, pennies, BB's , and thick cardstock will be used. This will be atleast a skill level 4 kit.
06/02 Added a nosecone and coupler for SKYLAB Variant .
